The instructor should add some more details like how many nodes he is planning to configure the cluster, why he chose 3 master and 3 worker nodes and is there any specific reason for choosing this configuration. Also, he can explain by comparing the real time architecture like how many master / worker nodes will be configured in a typical production environment etc

Some of the topics are very fast forwarding and topics like OpenLDAP have no explanation of it's use case. FreeIPA is not covered but I can see some configuration details in shared resources. Please add some troubleshooting steps if possible.

Very good deep dive into setting up Hadoop manually with several enterprise concerns addressed such as high availability and I tegration with LDAP.

Il décrit exactement les étapes à suivre pour obtenir le resultat souhaité. Je n'ai raté aucune information. Tout est compréhensible et complet à ce niveau

Course is very good for a beginner and it covers most of the essential components of HDP with respect to installation and deployment of multi node HDP cluster. The trainer explains the steps well and seems to knowledgeable. I expect more explanation on the services of Hadoop and HDP platform components and that would be really helpful for the beginners. I would also suggest you to upload all the work notes and commands on the topics covered in the Udemy LMS that would make our job a bit easier while practicing or follow along with the trainer. Overall my experience is great and recommend it to others.

Its too fast. Why, When and Where is missing in explanation. Instructor doesn't explain why we using this command or action. This course is good for Hadoop Admin experts who wants refresh not for beginner !!
By Bhagabati Prasad Das on 1/8/2019
Well explained every topic and good course for beginners to learn HDP administration. Add some more explanation on kerberos commands and how to operate on hdfs after enabling kerberos using keytabs. Add some quiz after every topic .

This is a great course and it covers all the major components of the HDP installation and administration. It's almost 100% hands-on and the instructor uses the latest versions of both Ambari and HDP, which is awesome. It has some typos here and there and background noise, but these are minor details. Some documents should've been added to the lecture instead of a separate page, and I've found some differences between documents shown and documents posted, but that won't bother you if you know a little bit of bash. Overall, I've enjoyed it a lot and learned tons of new skills. Highly recommended.
